It is unimaginable that a genius like Shakespeare could have lived. So the sonnets and plays must have been written by some other genius. Or maybe instead of one unexplained and improbable genius there were two or three unexplained and improbable geniuses masking as our undoubtedly fake solitary genius.

You might want to read a little about the 17th Earl of Oxford before you get all condescending. He had all the connections, training, and court access that Will of Stratford so conspicuously lacked.

I’m in the Oxfordian camp as well. Mark Anderson makes a good case in his excellent book, “Shakespeare by Another Name”

I am quite familiar with all the breathless conspiracy theories about who really wrote Shakespeare.
